Biography
Miguel Angel Juarez Celman was born in Cordoba, Argentina on 29 September 1844, and he became a lawyer in 1869. Due to his family connections, he easily entered into politics and became affiliated with the conservative National Autonomist Party, which was led by his brother-in-law Julio Argentino Roca. He won the 1886 presidential election through the use of fraud, and, following the 1890 Revolution of the Park, he had both teams competing in an 1890 rugby match and all 2,500 attendees arrested on the suspicion that they were taking part in a political meeting. Ultimately, the revolution forced him to resign, and Vice President Carlos Pellegrini succeeded him.
